Mohun Bagan had expressed their wish to play their I-League home games at their club ground for the upcoming season which starts on November. The I-League and the Indian Super League (ISL) will be held simultaneously this year.

Goals by Charles de Souza and Edwin Sydney in the first half left the Aizawl reeling but an inspired second half performance including strikes from Al-Amna and L. Ralte led the I League Champions to win.
